Doctor Alison Dawson now serves as Senior Doctor for Princess Cruises. A native of South Africa, she studied medicine in Johannesburg before eventually joining Princess in 2014 to fulfill her love of sea and travel. We caught up with her to get her insights into cruising and what goes into crafting the perfect voyage.
HOW DID YOUR CHILDHOOD INFLUENCE YOUR DECISION TO HAVE A CAREER AT SEA?
“My holidays were spent camping
at a seaside resort with days playing
on the white sandy beaches of South
Africa. I have always loved the sea. I
remember seeing my first cruise ship in
Port Elizabeth and being overwhelmed
with the size and grandeur of cruising. I
was amazed that there was a doctor on
board; so, fantasy became reality.”
WHAT’S THE MOST AMAZING MOMENT YOU’VE SEEN?
“Sailing through the Fiordlands in
New Zealand on a clear day. The
magnificence of the fjords and the
untouched beauty really made an
impression… you can get lost in
the beauty and serenity of this
mystical land.”
WHEN DO YOU RECALL SEEING A GUEST OVERJOYED?
“I love looking into the dining room
when waiters present the Chocolate
Journeys creations by Norman Love.
There is utter delight when the plate
gets placed in front of them. The guests
get lost in that first bite of absolute
sweetness and flavor combinations!”
WHAT DO YOU SEE ON BOARD THAT NEVER FAILS TO WARM YOUR HEART?
“Listening to couples tell their love
story. I am privileged to meet people
who have been married for 50-plus
years and listen to how they gush over
each other. It is wonderful to see a
couple who has dealt with many of life’s
problems together.”
WHAT’S THE MOST FASCINATING FACT ABOUT YOUR JOB?
“Meeting people from all around the
world from different cultures and
listening to their experiences… When
I get the chance to talk to passengers
and crew, their life stories make me
smile. I am also fascinated by the
amount of medical care that one can
give when floating in the middle of
the ocean. ”

Alaska is a world-class destination
for salt- and freshwater fishing, fly-
fishing and ice fishing, with more than
600 species flourishing in its three
million lakes and thousands of rivers
and streams. There’s no shortage of
spots to enjoy on Princess’ Land & Sea
Vacations — from stops in popular
Denali National Park to in-depth
excursions into the heart of the Great
Land. Whether you’re a novice or a
seasoned pro, expert anglers provide
the gear and guidance to go beyond
wilderness lodges and picturesque ports
for an ultimate fishing adventure.
Though it may be tempting to relax on the
Kenai Princess Wilderness Lodge® deck
amid lush mountain views, adventure
seekers can’t miss an excursion along
the Upper Kenai River that runs below.
These waters are spawning ground for
millions of Pacific salmon — including
record-sized king (Chinook) salmon,
Alaska’s state fish — making for some of
the most rewarding trophy fishing in the
state. Snap a photo of your catch before
enjoying the fruits of your labor with the
“Cook My Catch” culinary experience
as a chef prepares your fresh-caught
seafood just as you like it at the lodge.
Or indulge in other local favorites like
halibut, king crab, caribou, reindeer
and buffalo sausage and bison chili.
There’s more salmon to be found in the
Copper River, where residents celebrate
the arrival of king and sockeye salmon
in May and end the season in September
with an influx of coho salmon. From
your home base at the Copper River
Princess Wilderness Lodge®, you’ll
venture out for a day spent rafting along
the tributaries of the famous Copper
River or make more of your fishing time
traversing the Klutina River aboard a jet
boat. Your guide will put you in prime
position to catch the state’s premier
wild salmon, but prepare for a challenge
— some can weigh up to 70 pounds.
In Denali, a dedicated fly-fisherman
will guide the way to Fish Creek, taking
you from the basics of fly catching to
catch-and-release techniques. Arctic
grayling, a freshwater fish within the
trout family, are voracious surface feeders
and make for a fun day of catching on
the fly surrounded by breathtakingly
beautiful Alaska wilderness. Retreat to

against the backdrop of Denali.
Whether you go by jet boat or raft,
you’ll depart the historic village of
Talkeetna as your knowledgeable
angler leads you to favored fishing
spots along the Talkeetna River.
In Juneau, don waders and rain gear
and hop on an exhilarating floatplane
flight to the heart of southeast Alaska
back country. Keep your camera at the
ready; this is a prime opportunity to
spot brown and black bears, bald eagles,
deer and whales. Upon landing, you’ll
put your fly caster to good use, fishing
for cutthroat and Dolly Varden trout
as well as various salmon species.
Though fellow port Ketchikan is known
as the “Salmon Capital of World,” its
pure waters are also home to one of
the best spots for halibut. Share waters
up to 300 feet deep with seals and
humpback whales as you learn the
secrets to catching this large flatfish.
After each exhilarating day, head back
to your ship to tantalize your tastebuds
with specialties from local dives like crab
cakes from Tracy’s King Crab Shack in
Juneau paired with locally brewed beers.
Whether you’re a first-time angler or a
lifelong enthusiast, a fishing excursion
offered by Princess Cruises is a
highlight of your Alaska experience.
Princess’ Land & Sea Vacations include
the signature seven-day “Voyage of
the Glaciers” cruise, Princess rail

At Princess Cruises®, we’re committed to ensuring our guests come back from their vacation
feeling refreshed, renewed and rejuvenated. That's why we've collaborated with leading
experts in both the science and beauty of sleep to develop the new Princess Luxury Bed.
Developed exclusively for Princess by
the manufacturer of some of the most
comfortable hotel beds in the world, the
Princess® Luxury Bed was created
in conjunction with one of
the world’s foremost
experts in sleep, Dr.
Michael Breus —
who served as
the official sleep
expert of WebMD
and appears
regularly on the
“The Dr. Oz Show”
— to create a mattress
utilizing the latest in
sleep science research
and technology for the
ultimate night of sleep on board.
Also enlisted was renowned HGTV
design star Candice Olson, to ensure
the bed is as visually appealing as it is
comfortable. And with over 44,000 beds
rolling out to every stateroom across
the fleet through 2018, we’re thrilled to
offer true relaxation for our guests.
THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE BED
Working closely with
Dr. Breus, Princess bridged his scientific
knowledge of sleep with the latest
technology in comfort to design
the optimal mattress for
our guests. The circular-
knitted mattress ticking
provides increased
support for all sleeping
positions, conforming
to your body for greater
comfort and deeper
sleep. Electronically
tempered springs and
individually wrapped coils
reduce sleep-surface sway
and motion transfer, resulting
in less bed-partner disturbance. Plus,
full foam casing provides greater edge
support, increasing usable sleep surface.
CRADLED IN COMFORT
Fall asleep with a king-sized pillow*
atop the bed’s medium firm nine-inch
single-sided mattress, encircled by a
plush two-inch mattress topper.* Fine
bed linens are constructed from 100%
luxurious, long-staple cotton and woven
on Jacquard looms. And a European-
inspired duvet with a continuous-
filament fiberfill of hypoallergenic 100%
virgin polyester maximizes loft without
compromising climate comfort.
ON BOARD
The Princess Luxury Bed is now available
on board Ruby Princess,® Emerald Princess,®
Coral Princess® and Sun Princess® and will
debut on board Grand Princess® (Dec 2016),

TRANSATLANTIC CROSSINGSSail across the pond on an incredible Transatlantic
voyage. Departures available in April, August,
September and October 2017 through regions
around the globe, from a variety of ports. Visit
princess.com/transatlantics for more details.
MORE AVAILABLE!More Mediterranean and Northern
Europe itineraries are available for
2017! Departures from Rome,
Barcelona or London. Visit
princess.com/europe for more details.
Colosseum — perhaps the grandest of
all Rome’s monuments. And a fitting
end to the day awaits at the miraculous
Trevi Fountain. Legend has it that if
you turn your back and toss a coin into
it, someday you will return to Rome.
A short trip up the Italian coast
brings you to the UNESCO World
Heritage-listed Cinque Terre and its
five pastel-colored fishing villages.
Begin in Manarola at the Church of
San Lorenzo, which dates back to 1338,
then board a motorboat for a scenic
tour to Monterosso, where you’ll have
free time to sample local delicacies and
browse the town’s boutique shops.
Or perhaps majestic Spain and the
coastal gem of Barcelona are calling
your name. No stop here is complete
without a visit to architect Antoni
Gaudí’s unique structures, from the
whimsical Parc Güell to the detailed
spires and rainbow-colored stained
glass interior of La Sagrada Família.
Wander along cobblestone streets
through the Gothic Quarter, where
painters including Pablo Picasso and
Salvador Dalí found their muse, then
tuck into a family-owned restaurant
for a feast of tapas and Spanish wine.
A drive up to Montjuïc takes you past
the stunning stadium complex created
for the 1992 Summer Olympics and
up to the mountaintop where you’ll be
treated to vast Mediterranean views.
Spectacular vistas are paired with
medieval history and grand palaces
throughout the ports you’ll visit in
Scandinavia and Russia. Copenhagen,
the “Venice of the North,” lives up
to its name as you amble through
graceful canals and the old harbor of
Nyhavn, lined with cafés, restaurants
and 500-year-old gabled houses. In St.
Petersburg, modern buildings tower
alongside pastel palaces and golden
spires. A More Ashore overnight in
this fashionable city means you can
enjoy a night out at the Russian Ballet
or Catherine Palace, where you’ll
experience 18th-century court life
with a reception and lively music.
These cities are waiting to welcome
you with open arms and let you
into their world. You’ll return anew,
with unforgettable memories of
fascinating excursions and precious
European moments shared together.

What She Knew BY GILLY MACMILLANIn her enthralling debut, Gilly Macmillan
explores a mother’s search for her missing
son, weaving a taut psychological thriller.
In a heartbeat, everything changes…
her eight-year-old son Ben vanishes.
As she desperately pieces together the
threadbare clues, Rachel realizes that
nothing is quite as she imagined it to be,
not even her own judgment.
